Trump mocks Fox News host Laura Ingraham for wearing a mask at his campaign rally and calls her

Source: Business Insider

President Donald Trump mocked the Fox News host Laura Ingraham, one of his most influential media boosters, for wearing a face mask at his Friday campaign rally in Waterford Township, Michigan.

During an off-script portion of his speech, the president mentioned that Ingraham was at the rally and looked around to point her out to the crowd. But Trump quickly pounced on Ingraham when he saw that she had donned a face mask.

"I can't recognize you. Is that a mask? No way. Are you wearing a mask? I've never seen her in a mask," Trump said. "Look at you. Oh, she's being very politically correct. Whoa. Whoa."

Trump has regularly criticized mask-wearing, despite scientific evidence proving it an effective way to curb COVID-19 transmission, and has mocked others for wearing face masks. The president routinely makes fun of Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden for wearing a mask, even after Trump, the first lady, and several campaign and White House staffers contracted the virus.

It really has now developed into a cult where the followers take a visible risk, just to show their loyalty to the cult leader. The "political correctness" is, of course, by the Trumpists; it's a political reason they don't use masks. Wearing them is "hygenically correct", or "medically correct".

Nothing better than when Trump turns on one of his loyal soldiers. Like he always does, eventually.

Of all the people to make fun of. She lies for him every fucking day. One of his most ardent cult followers.

This usually ends one of two ways. They either wimper, take some "family" time off, or they go into double down territory. Thinking they have wronged Dear Leader, and must make it up to him. They go extra ravenous on his "enemies".
